If memoir or fancyhdr are in use, it +will also add this to the document footers unless the option "noheader" is +passed. + +It also defines a command `\versionBox{}` which outputs a box containing the +version and date of compilation + +For this to work, you must have git installed and available on the command +line, this document must be part of a git repository, and latex must be +running in "shell escape" mode. This can be enabled by passing `--shell-escape` +on the command line when compiling your docuemnt, or will be available in the +options of whatever GUI you're using (try Googling). + +Note that it's a good idea to tell git to ignore all the latex auxilary files, +otherwise your version will always be "dirty".
